Variations & Tips
For those who like a bit of a twist, add a splash of coconut water for a more tropical taste, or include a splash of rum for an adults-only version. If you’re not a fan of ginger ale, sparkling water works as a great substitute. Also, feel free to try different types of sugar like coconut sugar, which can add a deeper, caramel-like sweetness to the punch.
